Hi @MarkH1

Suggestion here https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/Got-a-recipe-for-converting-a-unix-timestamp-to-a-utc-date/td-p/137246 is to use the following:

addseconds('1970-1-1', Div(timestamp,1000) , 'yyyy-MM-dd')

I know this is old, but if anyone is just copy/pasting ... then ensuring that 'timestamp' (your source) is surrounded by an int() function cannot hurt any ...

However, I get more accurate results with the following (from here), @DamoBird365 ... am I going crazy?

addseconds('1970-1-1', int(UNIX_TIMESTAMP) , 'yyyy-MM-dd')

TBF - It probably depends on the type of UNIX timestamp. (sec/mili/micro)
